Synopsis
Music in the Human Experience: An Introduction to Music Psychology, Third Edition, explores the ways in which we make sense of music and how we respond to it—cognitively, physically, and emotionally. Written by musicians, for musicians, while incorporating findings from biology, anthropology, sociology, physics, philosophy, and education, the text presents musical experiences as widely varied and hugely complex affairs. How did human beings come to be musical creatures? Why do people have emotional responses to music? In Music in the Human Experience, the authors seek to understand and explain these musical phenomena that lie at the core of what it means to be human.New to the Third Edition: New co-author, Gary E. McPherson Fresh discussions on in-demand topics: social justice in music, fitness for musicians, constructivism, and more Increased recognition of non-Western music and musical experiences A digital overhaul of the accompanying multimedia tutorials, now available via www.musicinthehumanexperience.com Refined and updated content throughout
